About Johnny Y. Shum
Dr. Shum has been interested in serving underserved populations since medical school. This interest in health care disparities led him to spend time at several federally qualified community health centers in and around South Florida. There, he learned how important patient advocacy, coordination of care, communication, and cultural competency can influence patient outcomes. This interest continued throughout his time at UW Medicine | Valley Medical Center where he completed his residency in family medicine and practiced medicine for 7 years before joining Swedish Sand Point Primary Care. Dr. Shum practices full spectrum family medicine and has a special interest in serving the LGBTQ+ community, pediatrics, dermatology, and men’s health. In his free time, he enjoys working on & restoring his 100+ year old home, gardening, baking, and spending time with close friends and family.

Swedish Patient
The provider (Johnny) took time to review my medical history and brought up notes from my previous check up/routine care. He also took time to listen to possible concerns I had and asked follow up questions to make sure he understood before answering. His answers went over some of the technical/medical side while also providing additional explanation if I was confused or did not understand at first.

I have been sick with a really bad cold and came in after a few weeks to check in. I was overwhelmed by the significant level of customer service that this provider gave me while I was sick.

Swedish Patient
I am relatively new to Swedish Primary Care and Dr. Shum. Having said this, for the first time in a few years, feel confident in my primary care physician. He is thoughtful, asks great questions and is smart as he talks about my general health now and the future as someone turning 70 next month. It is reassuring.

Johny Shum is best doctor
Swedish Patient
This office is run very well and I recommend it without reservation. When I call, I talk to a real person right away. If I need an appointment that day, I call at 8 am and usually am able to get in to see someone due to cancellations. The physicians are excellent, as is the people working at the blood lab. Outstanding.
Swedish Patient
Neighborhood ease of care. Parking always available. Small business good feeling. Short commute to & from. Consistent care. I feel remembered.

I have had only great experiences with my doctor, he is so kind and so gentle as well as the nurse that he has with him. He did my Pap smear very gently and didn't cause me any discomfort at all or bleeding afterwards. He also is very knowledgeable about a lot of health questions I asked him which I really appreciated! I liked him so much as a doctor that I scheduled my husband an appointment with him as well!
Swedish Patient
Dr. Shum is fantastic! The MAs there are typically a little grouchy though, to be honest.
Swedish Patient
I am a complex, challenging patient. Dr. Shum does an outstanding job of tracking all the pieces that need to come together to get me healthier. He has patiently and diligently worked with me to learn how to respond to complex, time-sensitive paperwork hurdles and respond appropriately. This takes away loads of stress and helps me refocus on rehabilitation, which is all I can handle right now. His sunny, hopeful outlook always brightens my day. Thank you, Dr. Shum!!!!!
